Please note there are some rare copies of version 1.0 that were manufactured in grey cartridges before the new 1.1 compilation was introduced.

This can be checked on a PC by dumping the ROM into a text viewer or hex editor. On the Nintendo 64 console, you'll need to crash the game and enter the programmer's debug code. All in all, it can be too much trouble to find when you have some basic indicators (As follows).

In the original version of the game, you can perform a trick that allows you to leave the Fishing Pond with the rod equipped. Equip the hover boots, walk out onto the pond, and cast your line while still hovering. If done correctly, you'll be able to walk around even with the line cast. Make your way to the door and leave.

There are two versions of the Fire Temple music. The original contains a chant in Arabic, while the new track contains a quieter, synthesized chorus similiar to the music in the Shadow Temple. The track supposedly translated into a prayer, and was changed in response to complaints.

The Nintendo 64 versions of the game featured a crescent and star as the Gerudo emblem. It was found on the Mirror Shield and various objects throughout Hyrule. This was only recently removed in the Gamecube releases of the game, again due to real-world significance. The crescent moon and star are recognized predominantly as a common symbol of Islam. They are also featured on the flags of many modern day countries, such as Turkey.
